  • Zubin Cancels U.S. Tour Participation Due to Health Reasons -- Press Release
    From: American Friends of the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra Contact: Rubenstein Communications Adam Miller [email protected], 212-843-8032 Kelsey Stokes [email protected], 212-843-9317 ______________________________________________________________________________ Draft for Release MAESTRO ZUBIN MEHTA CANCELS HIS PARTICIPATION IN ISRAEL PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA’S UPCOMING 2019 U.S. TOUR DUE TO HEALTH REASONS Yoel Levi to Replace Mehta on Six-City Tour New York, NY, Jan, XX. 2019 – The American Friends of the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra today announced that Maestro Zubin Mehta has been forced to bow out of the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra’s upcoming 2019 U.S. Tour (Feb. 2-9) due to health reasons. Filling in for Mehta on the six-city tour is Yoel Levi, one of the world’s leading conductors, known for his vast repertoire, masterly interpretations and electrifying performances. The IPO’s 2019 U.S. Tour was to mark Maestro Mehta’s final U.S. tour before he retires as Music Director of the IPO in 2019, leaving behind a legacy of exceptional musicianship and humanitarianism. “The unexpected news of Zubin’s cancellation is an unfortunate turn of events, but we are grateful to Yoel for stepping in to conduct what we know will be a very exciting and uplifting U.S. Tour for the IPO,” said David Hirsch, President of the Board of the American Friends of the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra. Hirsch continued, “We had been looking forward to celebrating and honoring Zubin’s immeasurable contributions to the Israel Philharmonic, during what would have been his final U.S. tour as Music Director. All concerts on this tour conducted by Yoel will still be performed in recognition of Zubin.” Levi has had a long-standing relationship with the IPO, notably as the first Israeli to serve as Principal Guest Conductor of the Israel Philharmonic.

  • Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, Paulus Has Held Similar Positions with the Minnesota Orchestra, the Tanglewood Festival, and the Santa Fe Chamber Music Festival
    STEPHEN PAULUS New World Records 80363 Concerto for Violin and Orchestra Stephen Paulus, born in Summit, New Jersey, in 1949, earned his bachelor's, master's and doctoral degrees at the University of Minnesota under such teachers as Paul Felter and Dominick Argento. He is a co-founder of the highly successful Minnesota Composers Forum, established to promote support of composers and performances of their works. Now composer in residence with the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, Paulus has held similar positions with the Minnesota Orchestra, The Tanglewood Festival, and the Santa Fe Chamber Music Festival. His Violin Concerto won recognition in the Kennedy Center Friedheim Awards in 1988. He has received fellowships from the Guggenheim Foundation and the National Endowment for the Arts, as well as commissions from numerous musical organizations, including the Fromm Music Foundation and the Berkshire Music Center. Important among his works are his three operas; they have had successful premieres and, perhaps even more heartening, subsequent productions by other companies. Each was commissioned by the Opera Theatre of Saint Louis, whose general director, Richard Gaddes, was impressed by Paulus' cantata The North Shore, and engaged him to compose the one-act opera The Village Singer in 1979. Its success led to commissions for a two-act opera, The Postman Always Rings Twice, based on the novel by James M. Cain, and The Woodlanders, a three-act work inspired by Thomas Hardy's novel. In September 1983, Postman became the first American opera ever presented at the Edinburgh Festival. Stephen Paulus' musical style is melodic and highly rhythmic.

  • YOEL LEVI Conductor
    YOEL LEVI conductor Music Director of the KBS Symphony Orchestra in Seoul since 2014, Yoel Levi is known throughout the world from his work at the head of many of the world’s most prestigious orchestras, his repertoire of symphonic, operatic and lyric works and his extensive discography. Having won first prize at the International Conductors Competition in Besançon in 1978, he spent six years as the assistant of Lorin Maazel and resident conductor at the Cleveland Orchestra and went on to be Music Director of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra from 1988 to 2000. It was during his tenure with the orchestra that the British magazine Gramophone applauded his impact on the artistic standard of the orchestra: ‘Yoel Levi has built a reputation for himself and for his orchestra that is increasingly the envy of the big five American counterparts in New York, Philadelphia, Cleveland, Boston and Chicago.’ This sentiment was seconded with the nomination of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra as "Best orchestra of the Year" for 1991/92 at the First Annual International Classical Music Awards. Similarly, Yoel Levi has held positions with several European orchestras, where he has consistently raised performances to new and critically acclaimed levels. Having been Principal Conductor of the Brussels Philharmonic (2001 to 2007) Yoel Levi was appointed Principal Conductor of the Orchestre National d'Ile de France in 2005, a post he held until 2012, giving regular concerts in Paris, the Ile de France area and increasingly taking the orchestra on tour outside France to Spain, Eastern Europe and London, where the media praised the orchestra as being one of the most inspiring and frequently engaged orchestras in Europe.
